Celtclient is a minimalist

Celtclient is part of the libcelt distribution but it isn't built by
the build system yet because it depends on libspeexdsp but nothing
else in the CELT distribution does.  You *must* have a recent version
of libspeexdsp installed (i.e. 1.2rc1) to use celtclient.

To build celtclient you can do this:

cd celt
./configure ; make
cd tools
gcc -I. -I../libcelt -g -o celtclient celtclient.c alsa_device.c -lm
-lasound ../libcelt/.libs/libcelt.a -lspeexdsp

To run:
$ ./celtclient
Usage ./celtclient plughw:0,0 remote_host local_udp_port remote_udp_port


Enjoy!
